Well the rain put most off last night, although by the time 7pm approached, the rain had all but gone, and the 5 brave riders on the night set off. As the traffic lights are still there near Peover, the 2 lap course was used. Times in general were slower than most PBs, apart from […]

Club 10s – Guardian Cup Round 2 position
..and just before round 3 kicks off tonight, here are the placings. Hopefully we are not going to have another year like 2014 with loads of roadworks, but it certainly looks that way with yet another course change due to temporary traffic lights in Peover. We used the old 2 lapper that we all know […]
All abilities starter ride: Short blog f...
The weather certainly played a part today as we waited in the drizzle outside of the legion for 10:00 to arrive!! Nevertheless, expecting no-one, we had a young enthusiast pedalling up, suited and booted with his dad, club member Andy, along with him, and Gina, who came to get an idea of precisely what we […]

Club 10s – Guardian Cup Round 1 position
This is what you’ve all been waiting for. The points and positions for the first round of the Guardian Cup. It’ll be a good year this year with some new contenders, and speaking of which, the early leader after round 1 is brand new member Matt ‘Scoop’ Sayle, grabbing a maximum of 25 points for […]
Sometimes you’ve just got to stop and lo
A warm/cold* day greeted the riders with shorts/leggings* today, as we headed out for a club run to Bollington. A decent sized group was chatty and happy as we made easy and steady progress out from Hartford through Davenham, Lach Dennis, Goostry, Swetenham, and onto Siddington and up to Broken Cross. We scooted past Macclesfield, […]
Club 10s – Guardian Cup Round 1 – 13th M
A warmer, sunnier evening brought out the numbers, with 26 starting tonight, and the start of the Guardian Cup for 2015. Less wind on the night, but not necessarily easier, as there was no helpful tail from the start. Some good times posted though as the time-trialling legs get stretched for the rest of the […]

Club 10s – Practice 10 – 6th May 2015
A windy evening, but not as bad as most thought it might be, saw 16 riders take to the original TT course (unused last year). It was good to see newer riders returning for another go, already bitten by the bug of trying to beat their times set previously! Results are below, and for […]
Club 10s – Gents 2-up – 29th April 2015
The first event of 2015 saw an expectant few wait for a windy ride back on the usual course (after last year’s disruptive road works strewn events!). Unfortunately, it was noted on the night that more traffic lights had appeared on Middlewich Road, in Lower Peover. That put paid to that. Not to be denied […]
The ‘Eleanor made me write it’ club run
It’s true, she made me do it. Now she is a media luvvy, she can command such power upon the rest of us to complete any journalistic tasks at will. Woe betide anyone who doth protest. Anyhow. Shorts today for me, but not for most who felt the chill after the balmy sun of Saturday. […]
1 hour more to ride your bike… clocks go
That’s right – spring time, which means that you can set your clocks ahead one hour before you got to bed on Saturday night, and then get to club at 09:30 instead of 10:00!! Longer days, and more time to enjoy the miles! Don’t forget…..
